Had it not been for a grace a mercy from his Lord that reached him he would have surely been cast out of the belly of the whale onto a wilderness a desolate land while he was blameworthy — but he was shown mercy and was therefore cast out blameless.
Ibn Abbas Commentary
(Had it not been that favour) mercy (from his Lord had reached him he surely had been cast into the wilderness while he was reprobate) and guilty.
